Sounds like this may be a description of a red dun horse (a chestnut horse with the dun gene). Many breeds have the dun gene, mustangs and quarter horses are examples.
OK, well old indicates that he is about 20 or more. Quarter horse is a breed that is used for mostly western events, because that is what he was bred for- roping cattle and other things the cowboys did. They have powerful hindquarters that allow them to jump into a run from a standstill, they are the fastest horses in the world (over a short distance), and they can stop and spin on a dime. Dun is an intense color with a hide that has an abundance of pigment in the hairs. The dun color is a duller shade than buckskin and may have a smutty appearance. Most dun horses have dark points of brown or black. Dun horses sport the "dun factor" points which include dorsal and shoulder stripes, leg barring, etc.

The name isn't Dunn, it's dun, and it's a coat colour, yellow with black legs and a dorsal stripe down the back, with black mane and tail. It also comes from a legendary Quarter horse sire, Hollywood Dunnit. Many of his offspring share part of his name, usually Dunnit or Dunn. Actually, dun can be any color, but it is paler then most colors. yellow with black legs, mane, and tail is a buckskin. but a dun ALWAYS has a dorsal stripe, or its not a dun.
The color of the first wild horses is thought to have been dun.
